MOORISH PORK KEBABS



Moorish Pork Kebabs image

We can all stand a little Moorish in our lives. ;-) The original recipe would have been made from lamb or goat. Upon driving the Moors out of Spain in 1492, the free peoples of Spain wanted to reinforce their independence by celebrating the thing their previous overlords forbid, eating pork. It's no coincidence that Spaniards love pork to this day as it is a direct response to their turmoiled past. If you must, use lamb or chicken.

SPANISH PORK SKEWERS



Spanish Pork Skewers image

For casual entertaining, the tapas experience translates well to the small home kitchen. One delicious hot tapas classic easily made at home is called pinchos Moruños, or Moorish skewers, essentially small kebabs of pork marinated in Arabic (Moorish) spices and grilled, usually on a hot steel plancha. Because most Muslim Arabs wouldn't eat pork, one presumes the original dish was lamb. It's anyone's guess how it evolved into this ubiquitous tapa selection in Christian Spain. Nevertheless, now it means pork seasoned with garlic, cumin, coriander, pimentón and sometimes oregano. Once skewered, they need only about 5 minutes on a hot griddle.
